GLENYS M. GRIMWOOD MSDC
I have designed and stitched since first discovering paints, fabrics and threads as a child. Having helped to found New Embroidery Group I have contributed regularly to its activities and exhibitions while specialising in ecclesiastical embroidery.
My commissions, both individual and church, come mainly from S.E. England and include Festal Sets for the three Anglican churches in Dunstable and a Green set for Alleyn’s College of God’s Gift at Dulwich. The designs I select range from traditional religious symbols, lettering, and architecture or develop from my interest in botanical illustration.
In 1987 I was elected a member of the Society of Designer Craftsmen.
